![The Diamond - The Most EXCLUSIVE GUITAR I've BUILT to Date [GGBO2022]](/img/n.gif)
I think someone messed up in editing. They left off the part where you announced that you were gifting the guitar to me.
That's because it was gifted to me already. Sorry bud.
I might send you pictures of me holding it, as a consolation prize.
@@Phoenix_cataclysm_in_2040 Ya think so do you? The cheek of the pair of you when you know it is sitting next to me at home as we share a bottle of wine.
@@LRBerry Non of it, i bought it.....
How much??
@@musik4life24 $3.50
Watching Dave Simpson play this guitar 2 plus years on...what a beast, it surely has to be one of Ben's finest to date simply a stunning looking guitar.
Just when you think you've seen all the amazing guitar builts on tube... man o man..speechless.
I'm not a guitar player, I'm a drummer for literally 45 years, but if i ever hit the lottery here in the states I'd have a room full of guitars I love and I would have this one in the collection for sure. It is simply amazing.
I like these super edits cos I can show my non-luthier/non-guitar obsessed friends without them having to sit through the whole 5-10 hours of episodes. They still get an appreciation of the immense Craftsmanship. Personally I still love watching it one episode at a time 😍
Hey Ryan, thank you, and thank you for showing your friends, though I wonder how you gain friends outside of the guitar world!? We're always going to do super edits from now on.. they are easy enough to do and worth the time imo. Thanks for watching! B
Damn that’s one of the nicest guitars I’ve ever seen. Amazing detail. And the history in that wood...! Incredible outcome. Very good.✌️
Man i'm watching this again years later and i'm loving it... I really want to learn to build guitars...
Well. That has to be the sickest build I've seen anywhere.
The Guitar is art. Bling Bling. beautiful work
This guy does such beautiful work👍
Came here from Know Your Gear channel, because Phillip McKnight said you don't make guitars but instead 'art'. Saw this one first, and I see a lot of traditional woodworking tools, love this build and expect that I will lose a bunch of time watching others.
This is the most besutiful guitar I’ve seen.
A thrue luthier.
Respect from Norway. 🇳🇴
That build is extremely beautiful. I have to say that my favorite feature is the carve of the guitar. It is extremely elegant.
I would also like to praise the young man that has done the finish. It really takes the hands of an artist to make that black and gold river shine.
Awesome !
One of your best builds, and honestly, the only use of gold hardware I’ve ever dug! Thanks for the vid series!
Gold hardware is a little polarising, I've often mixed it up with black to minimise the effect but, well.. this one I had to go all out and I am glad I did! Thank you for your support Michael! B
agreed first for me as well, stunning
@@CrimsonCustomGuitars What kind of hardware. Specifically the string through part connected to the strap button?
@@teapartyforthedead7032 FYI I think it's called a Trapeze. ✌️🇦🇺
The guy's hair matching the body makes 15:13 such a satisfying shot, lol.
Now i like gold hardware!
Possibly the most beautiful guitar I have ever seen. I am an aspiring guitar builder and your next level creations are always a huge inspiration. Thanks Ben... keep up the great work. Merry Christmas.
Congrats Ben! Stunning job , loved it. I always hated golden hardware BUT fits so graceful in this piece of art. Million thanks for your dedication and care. I was born between ancient ruins and seeing your creative vein here has been like getting eternal a moment in time.
Yep coolest looking guitar I've ever seen..black....gold...fancy filigree tuners.. omg I'm in love
Thank you! 😊
I am thrilled! What a great work, what a fantastic instrument, it's a real eye-catcher 👏
Best guitar porno I think I've ever seen! I'm gonna need a shower after this one.
Lol.
I'm gonna need a smoke after this. I don't even play guitar. Lol

Была бы у меня такая гитара, я может и не женился бы никогда.
@@Jurinson Хорошо сказано, и я согласен
The most Beautiful guitar ever!!! OMG...
The most stunning piece you’ve done. Beautiful work man!
Absolutely splendid.
The inlays are soo wonderful they should become a thing.
Love how this turned out and I loved watching every bit
That's really resinant. So amazing!
Amazing beauty! Even the frets in gold is fantastic!
Wow that is a stunning creation. Has to be the absolute best guitar I've ever seen as far as being appealing to the eye I literally wouldn't change a thing about it.
Thanks dude, I really appreciate that. B
"We have a ... thing!... And it ful of thingness"... yessss!
Lol it reminded me of Captain Jack Sparrow when he said that
@@matthewrhodes2010 i
Absolutely amazing. You have a gift.
Absolutely gorgeous build!
Incredible. I've seen epoxy and wood in coffee tables and the such, but not in a guitar. This piece is absolutely stunning. Out of curiosity, what would a guitar like this sell for, Ben?
A very pretty guitar, everything goes together really well, love how the gold leaf is carried through on the body, crown inlays and headstock. Also the small touches add so much, like you I'm not a fan of plastic humbucker surrounds (or even metal ones for that matter) but just dulling them off like you did looks so classy. For me (and I don't know why) but when you decided on the trapeze tailpiece and fitted it the whole guitar just looked fantastic, soooo glad you didn't go for the standard stop tailpiece they're look so bloody agricultural. I think this guitar is a nice balance between being different but not too outlandish, I think the gold leaf is the "star of the show" rather than the resin... It's a pity that the JPS Lotus F1 team aren't still in existence, would have looked great alongside one of their cars back in the day!
This might just be the most beautiful guitar I've ever seen. What a masterpiece!
love shiny ... have a great shiny 2020 dear ben c.s.
thanks for all awesomeness in this ending year
I’ve watched this about six times since it was first completed. I still don’t know of any other guitar on earth Id rather have just for looking at. Once again sir I say to you, amazing. This thing could hang as art beside the Mona Lisa and not be out of place.
Thank you very much, you have made my day! B
I meant every word. If I were a man of means I would own this guitar somehow. Love the videos man. Keep it up.
I'm not a fan of gold hardware on a guitar, but this one looks perfect and oozes pure class. I can't decide whether this or the Complication is my favourite build so far and soon there'll be the 2020 Explorer to add to the mix as well!
This is the best looking one I've seen you do. I love the black and gold theme.
That is truly an amazing piece of work. Thank you for sharing the experience.
Wonderful! You are very good!

*****FAVORITE build of yours... Ever. PLEASE do one with silver leaf in a similar way (same type of wood and resin). Maybe add some blue to the resin in places, see through blue if its possible. Crazy silver tuners like you got in gold. Maybe a super strat style or an SG shape or maybe like a PRS or EVH shape. You could change things up enough for peoole to be super interested yet they know the quality and style will be the same as your previous build. I would probably make a third one in the series with black hardware and emerald leaf. That would be AMAZING.... Cheers mate. PS: maybe you could add glow in the dark powder to all the resin stuff. Would be amazing when played live.
I thought Ben was the crazy one! Sounds good though.
"See through blue" is called TRANSPARENT blue buddy :D
My favorite build too, just dont like the tailpiece choice. But it's his not mine I guess
@@holzleder570 thanks mate. Was thinking maybe pour a third solid blue with the rest on too clear. I just can't believe how good this guitar turned out. Some of the resin guitars can look cheap and tacky but this was all class.. . and I want to see more... Cheers.
Wot, ya think 800 year old bog wood is just ... layin' around in the street or somethin'? ;)
It's GORGEOUS! Well done Ben, that's a masterpiece.
That is a beautiful piece of craftsmanship and really love the gold and black. Really worth the man hours that went into building that guitar a work to be proud of and priceless.
I'm getting Bill Bailey dressing up as Kerry King vibes, with the artistry of Da Vinci... \m/\m/
Spot on
Hell yeah I'll watch more of this at 5:16 a.m. 😆
After you finished listening to 5:12 am by Novelists at 5:12 am?
Come on man. That's an amazing guitar. I'm speechless.
The craftsmanship is incredible!!! Production of the videos are also great, keep it up.
absolutely beautiful build. i am going to try building one of my own here in a week or two. i doubt it will turn out a sexy as yours but thanks for the inspiriation!
"A River Runs Through It" The End!!!
This realy is the most beautifull guitar I have ever seen!!
That's the most Beautiful Piece of Art made by a true Artist. Amazing!
A shout-out to all those who love to indulge in the argument about "tone woods" on electric guitars. Which gives better tone -- bog wood with gold leaf, or resin? ;) ;) ;)
@@Lamster66 Hello. Do you have any links to where we can hear how "non bog" these guitars built on this chanel sound? I'd be interested to hear if that 10 quid or less from ebay bridge stirrup thing affects the sound goodly.
@@Lamster66 LOL Quite right!
I am going to post this to all of my friends to make them as well be witnesses of your awesomeness.
You did an absolutely amazing job on this guitar. It is a beautiful guitar. Great work. Love it!
You are more than an artist! Pure feeling!
I can't believe I hadn't seen this one. Its my favourite so far. What a gem of a guitar. Pure wizardry.
Amazing work. Excellent!!!! Most beautiful LP ever.
one of the most beautiful pieces I've seen... I'm in awe... !!
Oh my God that is the most beautiful guitar I've ever seen 😍
Stunning. Possibly the most beautiful guitar I've ever seen.
Wow, wow, wow. The most beautiful guitar I've ever seen
Absolutely exquisite! I couldn't do it justice, but boy I'd like to have an hour with that! Very, very well done!
One of the best craftsman! Such a beautiful guitar.
Hats off.
Seriously one of the most beautiful guitars I’ve ever seen
My favourite video this Christmas season. Congratulations!
I really enjoyed watching you build that beautiful guitar.
I've been thoroughly enjoying seeing your watch collection change and grow over the years.
Wow! Absolutely beautiful. Love your artistry.
To you all at crimson have a great Christmas, all the best Mark. 🎅
This is an art of creating a pure beauty. You sir are an artist.
Absolutely riveting to see the creation of a masterpiece! You're a gift to mankind. Not kidding. I was waiting for that power chord at the end, to put the cap on a brilliant presentation, though. Even so, loved what you did. ♥️👍
Wasn’t convinced when you started the build but hell yeah! Gorgeous.... your a genius.......
CRAZY GOOD edit on this build Ben!!!! LOVE IT!!
One of the coolest builds I’ve seen
Grandissimo lavoro come sempre! Complimenti!
It's absolutely beautiful!
Absolutely Stunning.
That's a one masterpiece for the ages.
Ben, You are an artist. Loved the video, loved the end product. Thank you for sharing.
That is one spectacular guitar, congratulations.
A beautiful looking carve. I like the super edit. I was going to do this with one of your 9 hour builds. Don't need to now.
Awesome work. I've built guitars several times but never thought to use timber like that and with resin and gold. You are the master.
Wow what a beautiful guitar
Amazing piece of art! Absolutely love it. 😍
Visually this has few peers. Outstanding. Literally.
Brilliant, mate. Just beautiful and brilliant.
I don’t always agree with some of your builds, but this one is a grand slam. This is what I call a custom guitar. It’s unique, artistic, elegant and beautiful.
Custom shop Les Paul? Pfff,
A guitar like this blows them away everyday of the week and twice on Sunday.
Wow wow wow. 10/10 GORGEOUS.
Absolutely gorgeous!!
that guitar is soo beautifull.... masterpiece..!!
I've seen some truly amazing things on youtube, but this one beats all! Some people call themselves artists. You are the Master Artist of all guitar building. Unbelievably beautiful!
